Cynon Gateway North - Road Project

Description

The Cynon Gateway is a 1.2km proposed link road to connect the A4059 Aberdare Bypass, east of Penywaun to a new roundabout at Croesbychan (constructed as part of the A465 heads of valleys scheme). The proposed scheme is located approximately 2.6 km north west of Aberdare, and lies between the communities of Llwydcoed to the east and Penywaun to the west. The scheme also bisects the Afon Cynon (midway along the route) and Nant Hir (in the northern part of the route). An unnamed road leading to Gamlyn Isaf Cottage crosses the southern part of the proposed scheme. The proposed route lies adjacent to the residential village of Llwydcoed circa 500m to the east; the residential village of Penywaun circa 150m to the west and residential properties towards the north of Aberdare circa 600m to the south. The dates provided for in this notice are estimations and subject to other appointments such as Project Management.
